And Østberg announced in FIA press conference post Sweden he's also going next to Argentina.
Just because all of that quoted - absolutely PR farce.
Watch till the end. Mads can troll even Citroen PR stuff.

In Monte he didn't have any information about the possible ice in that corner from his ice note crew.
Also this was his first Rally Sweden and first time working with factory team in Snow conditions with just one day of testing in Monday and I believe Kalle and the team had different thoughts about what setup works and what not.
We saw him test the new Evo Fabia in Czech but that has nothing to do with Sweden and is a different car.
Also where was Nikolay? Did he jump into WRC too quickly? Maybe more national rallies to build up some speed first.
Probably no. Even most of the manuf. don`t take it seriously, clear indication is last weekends Sweden, not to mention the upcoming joke in Rally Mexico.

If the WRC2Pro rules applied to the 2018 season, how would it affect the standings? Well, Huttunen would have gained a lot more positions by being a Pro driver behind regular WRC2 drivers. On WRC2, Nil Solans and Benito Guerra would benefit as well, being closer to bigger points.
Come on, you are trying to troll again? There is plenty of places on Monte where should be ice and you have no notes about it from gravel crew. He easily started too quickly and made a mistake. And your theory regarding "works car" is also... ...funny. Nikolay has decided to go different way - from beginning he wanted to start more careful as his main target was go through all stages without problems to have possibility to learn them for future and not finish somewhere out of the road. It is a question if this tactics was good or not...
Well this is what he said all the time during the rally, I don't see how it is trolling :D Source: https://www.rallit.fi/kalle-rovanper...ksi-sen-takia/
Nikolay was absolutely no where, even thought Kalle went off twice he still showed some pace. Nikolay with his pre event rallies and tests should have been able to fight for atleast podium places, but now his best stage results were 5th in WRC2. I guess that is the level of ERC nowadays ;)
I am sorry to everyone that I have broken my resolution not to answer to Essaj. My fault, I will try not to repeat it ;)
For the two first WRC rallies of this year, there has not been a Skoda in the top 5 of class RC2. The last time this happened was in Australia 2015.
